Equipment
- Oven
Ingredients
- 2 lobster tails cooked and chopped
- 2 ½ cups cheddar cheese freshly shredded and divided
- ½ cup gruyere cheese shredded
- ½ cup parmesan cheese grated
- ½ stick butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 teaspoons salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon mustard powder optional
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg optional
- Pepper to taste
- ½ pound elbow macaroni pasta cooked
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (205 degrees Celsius).
- Heat a grill or grill pan to high heat, drizzle with olive oil, and grill the lobster tails (about 10 minutes, depending on the size). Once cooked, set aside.
- Follow the package directions for cooking the elbow macaroni.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir the flour into the melted butter for 3 minutes, or until thickened.
- Whisk in the milk gradually, a little at a time.
- The thicker the sauce, the slower you add the milk.
- Incorporate the cheddar, gruyere, and parmesan cheeses into the sauce (reserve a bit of each for the top).
- Stir in the salt, pepper, garlic powder, mustard powder, and nutmeg until well combined.
- Stir in the cooked macaroni noodles and lobster to the sauce.
- Transfer to a 9 x 13 baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray. Sprinkle the remaining cheeses on top and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and bubbling.
